Hi, I recently purchased this butter churn and I’m curious about the background & value. It is generally in good shape, with a little bit of crazing (on the back) and a few small chips, including 2 chips at the base (at the back) that are about 1 cm wide. The diameter of the base is about 11 inches, and the height is about 17 inches. It is quite heavy. It didn’t come with a lid. Barb

Question:
I recently was given a set of Red Wing dishes in the driftwood pattern. Due to the lead in the glaze, we are interested in learning the value of the pieces. We have 8 11" dinner plates, 2 8" salad plates, 8 6.5" Side plates, 1 serving platter, 1 casserole w/ intact lid, 1 divided serving dish, 1 undivided serving dish, 8 coffee cups w/ saucers, 8 bowls, 2 serving bowls, 1 sugar dish w/ lid, and 1 set of salt & pepper shakers. The only flaws we have found are: a coffee cup had a broken handle that was glued back together, and a plate had a chip out of the edge. I took pictures of the set and of the flaws, but do not have access to them at the moment. Thank you for your input! Perry

Question:
I have a number of antique Red Wing Crock pots sized from 15 gallons to 5 gallons. I assume that these were used in days past to store flour, pickles, and the like. Please let me know what they used to cover the crock pots and where I may be able to get covers. Karl
Answer: Red Wing made stoneware lids for the various sizes. Lids can be found in antiques shops or malls. Some are available for sale on ebay.

Red Wing, Minn.’ Thank you in advance! Collin
Answer:
If it were my crock, I would pick us one glue at the local hardware stone and glue it myself.
Question:
I have a 20 gallon Crock that I found in my Mom’s garage. I was wondering if you could give me an estimate of what the value might be. It does not have a top/lid but it does have two wire and wood handles. They look to be original. The piece has no cracks or chips. I’ve attached a photo of the Crock. There are no other markings of any kind on the piece that I am able to see. Thank you for you help. Sincerely, Robert Airis
